Ryan_Warren Liked a comment about product review Tested: EXT Era v2.1 Fork
1/24/2024 2:14pm
Ive had all three iterations while in the throws of considering the 2.1 upgrade i almost sold the fork but i gave it one more shot and am so glad i did. The 2.1 is a serious contender and maybe even a superior fork in some respects compared to RS and Foxs offerings.

mtbschrader Started a new thread Suntour TriAir2 3CR shock for sale
1/14/2024 5:18pm Used 2 seasons. Barely used over the winters. Excellent condition. 210x50 size. 3 volume spacers included. I’m only selling this because I’m switching frames and it won’t fit. I’m pretty sure this can be a 210x55 as well by removing a travel reducer. Asking $275, includes shipping.

1/14/2024 5:16pm Front triangle was replaced in July 2022 due to an issue with the aluminum insert in the bottom bracket. Nocrash or cracks involved. Bike is barely ridden in the winters. Great condition with some minor cosmetic wear. Cane Creek 40 series headset, also from July 2022, with a new fork race for it. Rear axle, seatpost clamp and 2 extra...

God, the Bluetooth speaker Chads are something else. Can't decide if I hate them more than Ebbers poaching trail or NIMBYs sabotaging trail. All of them are selfish twats ruining a nice ride.

not all 31.8 bars are equal, Renthal 31.8 are stiffer than most 35.0 carbon bars. All depends on layup and design

What's also In: -High-end metal bikes. RAAW, Knolly, Banshee, Privateer, Specialized, Devinci, Commencal - so hot right now! -Frame adjustability. And honestly good on those brands that let me choose wheelsize, HTA, Reach and BB height for myself. -The Vital B-Practice Podcast. The crew is doing a stellar job! -Frame flex. Compliance is going to be the hot, new marketing buzzword in 2024. What's also Out: -Carbon as a frame material, especially for long-travel bikes. Riders are loving well-specced metal bikes right now. -Pinkbike. It's truly sad how things have gone downhill since the Outside takeover. No wonder Mike Levy...

But the frame sets still cost the same? Then they still are irrelevant to me.

10/23/2023 12:50pm
A new take on front suspension tech I am experimenting with which could be a simple bolt on conversion. Specs: Fox 36 140mm travel with custom one piece Upright/fork crown. Girder fork type link suspension with Fox DPS shock giving 53mm travel. 193mm total travel. This system gives the front wheel two different wheelpaths....the more vertical of the Telefork and a more rearwards wheelpath of the Link suspension....each seperately tunable. A more dynamic range of change for offset and trail. This adds a third level of suspension compliance ( first being the tire...then the Telefork..then the link suspension ). I...

Keep your day job and keep on racing. You may get a factory ride at some point, you may not, but keep riding and racing for the love of riding! You are learning so much by making this happen on your own and this approach will pay great dividends in life.

I second Amaury's questions about safety. Our rider Tristan Lemire had a bad crash in practice that caused him to fall just to the side of the track. He came to a stop on the tree pictured here. He was very lucky to have only broken a metacarpal and will be back in Andorra. He very easily could have been impaled by the branches on these logs. He fell directly onto this pile of shrapnel. This is literally 5' off the side of the steepest part of the track inside the B zone. It's insane that this area is not...

That one dude in the group ride with his Dakine Trail Builder back pack bringing all 3 configurations stops the group ride to swap them out for each upcoming segment of trail. At rides end, no one tells him they're going for beers.
